Our expert's notes

A mind-controlled rocket penguin from the Tim Burton superhero sequel Batman Returns. For the scene where The Penguin (Danny DeVito) delivered his inspirational speech to a crowd of rocket-clad penguins, the production used models to fill out the crowd of live birds, many of whom wouldn't stay still for the duration of the sequence.

Crafted from rubber and foam with an internal armature, the penguin wears a helmet and harness, with a metal wire antennae and a plastic rocket harnessed to its back. It is painted black and white, with silver-coloured paint for the helmet and straps, and a red-and-white candy-cane pattern on the rocket. It has received some minor sympathetic restoration, including a metal rod in the tail for standing support, and re-insertion of an armature wire that was protruding from the beak. There is some wear from production use, including minor paint cracks. Dimensions: 33 cm x 22 cm x 46 cm (13" x 8 3/4" x 18")
